By Austyn Graham, author . of " The Parson and the Poor." Two vols. John Alaxwell and Com- pany, Fleet•-street. This is a very peculiar sort of story, which may at least lay claim to some sort of originality, since its heroine can rarely End a counterpart among the many fictitious characters that figure in the pages of romance. Eardley Smith is a remarkable woman, and one that possesses too many good qualities and kind feelings not to make us regret her errors. The lamentable course which Eardley adopted was the more to be deprecated, since she could have assisted her lest friend and soothed Ler dying moments without in any way compromising her own honour, or sacrificing her prospects in life. A more false position than that in which she placed herself, her friends, and the unfortunate child of Mildred cannot well be imagined. There is some thing painful in this passage of the story,something which shocks the feelings and jars o❑ the taste of the reader. The idea of Eardiey trying to shield her friend's honour at the expense of her own is quite preposterous, and nothing could excuse the attempt. In the first place, it was practising a gross deceit on society, and it was also violating the strict injunction to avoid even the appearance of evil, which more or less should be that she gives way to such mistaken notions, and marks out herself such a strange mode of procedure. It occurs to the mind on perusing the details of Eard. ley's extraordinary arrangements after her dis covery of Mildred, that she made a great mis take in arrogating to herself the task of settling the right and wrong iu social questions,instead of calmly following the acknowledged and recognised rules the guiding principle of all virtuous lives, and actuate the undertakings of the conscien tious and well-meaning. There is a false morality in all this which cannot be approved of, and which, indeed, may be productive of he worst results to those who are influ enced by its precepts. lire must not do evil that good may come of it, and Eardley did not do her part to adjust the difficulties of the case by running into such a false position. Mildred was weak in the extreme, but she was more sinned against than sinning; however, Eardley's strength 1 1 seemed nearly as fatal to her progress in life as her protegee's weakness. If both the one and the other had ,put their trust in a higher help than man can afford, and followed the precepts of that religion which makes the weak strong, and forbids the lofty to rely on themselves, how different would their fate have been ; sks it was, one meekly succumbed to ruin, the other dared the world to do its worst, and seemed more inclined to do wrong to show her iediffetence to opinion, than to do right, and appear to yield to other's views or conform to their notions. So far as this moral is deduced from the fitful pages before us a useful lesson msy be learned, but if the author's intention is to vindicate the line of conduct pursued by Eardley, he cannot expect the sympathy of his readers or fulfil the object of his exertions. Apart from this, the chief subject of discussion, there are some noticeable incidents introduced, and some well-drawn characters sketched, that impart a vivacity to the work, and increase the interest. The Musical Monthly. No. 1. Office, 40, Great Marlborough-street. The musical public has - long been in want of a serial to represent their tastes and interests, and they have at last offered for their acceptance a magazine of very great and varied attractions. It has many of the usual characteristics of its monthly contemporaries—tales, sketches, poems, criticisms, &c. It has, besides, literary, artistic, and musical notes and notices, and a summary of the events of the month, and articles on the drama. A corner is set aside, too, for original songs for music, a fact which we hope may tend to raise in some degree the poetical merits of our popular ballads. The most distinctive and fascinating feature of the "Musical Monthly," however, is the publication of an original musical composition with e:.ch number —not a thin sheet or insignificant page, bat a piece of music got up in the style of the best musicsellers. The contribution in the number before us is styled "The Happy Christmas Quadrille," and is arranged from the popular music of olden time. It consists of eight full-sized pages in a prettily illustrated wrapper, and when taken out of the magazine forms a graceful addition to the music stand. For the February part we are promised " The Frost Fairy Galop," and though we may hope that the title will no longer be appropriate, we have no doubt its at tractions, external and internal, will rival those of the " Christmas Quadrille," and like it, enliven many festive gatherings. MARK-LANE. The trade for wheat in the country markets held on Sa turday was quiet, nevertheless all good and fine dry samples ruled firm in price. In spring corn a fair business was transacted, and previous quotations were steadily supported. Flour was in moderate request, on former terms. Advices from New York state that a tolerably extensive business had been done in good and fine wheat and flour for shipment to this country, at enhanced currencies. Ship ments of flour continue to be made from Franco to Great Britain. Up to our market last w eek the arrivals of Eng lish grain were but moderate. The imports from abroad amounted to 33,292 quarters of wheat, 17,457 barley, 11,129 oats, 230 beaus, 2,083 peas, 641 tares, 25,604 linseed, 9,264 oilseeds, 1,280 sundry seeds, 2,824 sacks and 29,66 S barrels of flour. Fresh up to Mark-lane to-day the arrivals of home grown wheat were very moderato, and the condition of the pro duce was by no means satisfactory. The trade, which, at the close of last week, showed a tendency to improvement, was, owing to the large importations, viz., 33,000 quarters of wheat and over 32,000 sacks and barrels of flour—in a sluggish state. However, at the close of business, a fair clearance had been effected of good and fine dry samples, and prices for such exhibited less depression than on Mon day last. Compared with this day fortnight, the quotations realised showed a reduction of is pa. quarter. _ _ The supply of most descriptions of foreign wheat on the stands was moderately large. The amount of business transacted was very moderate, and where sales were pressed rather less money was accepted. Floating cargoes of wheat were in slow request, at late rates. Spring corn afloat was, however, tolerably firm. With barley the market was moderately supplied. Malt ing qualities, in fine condition, sold steadily at full prices. Secondary descriptions were in slow request, at late rates. For grinding and distilling parcels the demand ruled inac tive, on former terms. A moderate business was transacted in malt, at previous currencies. The supply of oats on sale was tolerably large. All good and fine descriptions of corn were in fair average request, at full prices; otherwise, the trade was dull, on former terms. Beans changed hands to a moderate extent, at the late rates. The show of samples was of fair extent. The value of peas was steadily supported, and the trade was tolerably firm. - - Although the import of barrel flour last week was large, very little was offered at market to-day, and prices may be considered the same as on Monday last, In other descrip tions of lour a fair business was transacted at late rates, CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEAIiVER, Wheat—Essex and Kent, red, 1863, per qr —5 to —5 Ditto, old 33s 40s Ditto, white, 1863 42s 48s Ditto, old 37s 465 Norfolk and Lincoln, red, old 3Bs 40s Ditto, 1863 Talavera, Rye— 32s 33s Barley—Grinding 26s 288 Malting 2Bs 393 Malt—Suffolk and Norfolk 6os 663 Brown Kingstown and Ware 6os 668 Chevalier 66s 68s Oats —Yorkshire and Lincolnsh., Feeding lBB 22s Potato Youghal and Cork, black l6s 23s Cork, white Scotch, Feeding 2os 23s Beans—Tick Pigeons, Peas—Grey Maple White 3ss 37s Boilers 3ss 37s Flour—Town-made, per 2801 b Suffolk . ......, * 2Bs 308 Stockton and N0rf01k....—.....« 27s 295 American, per barrel l9s 25s METROPOLITAN CATTLE. For the time of year the supply of foreign stock on sale in to-day's market was rather extensive, whilst its general quality was good. There was more firmness in the demand, and prices were well supported. The arrivals of beasts fresh up from our own grazing districts, as well as from Scotland, was seasonably good, and nearly all breeds came to hand in prime condition. Although the beef trade was by no means active, sales pro gressed steadily, at prices fully equal to Monday last. The general top figure for Scots and crosses was ss, but a few very superior animals produced 5s 2d per 81bs. Prior to the close of business a fair clearance was effected. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we received about 2,000 Scots, crosses, etc.; from other parts of England, 700 various breeds; from Scotland, 360 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland 130 oxen and heifers. Notwithstanding that th 3 show of sheep was limited, the mutton trade exhibited no signs of improvement. Prices, however, were well supported. Downs, in the wool, sold at 6s per Blbs, and the quality of the stock was prime. There were about 500 shorn sheep in the pens, and which sold at is per 81bs less money than those in the wool. The few lambs on offer changed hands slowly, at from Cs to 7s per Sibs. Calves, the supply of which was only moderate, were dull, at previous rates.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ROBBING A LADY AT THE PRINCESS'S THEATRE. — Alfred Hill, a young man, was charged befere Mr. Tyr whitt with robbing a lady at the Princess's Theatre of a purse containing half a sovereign end some silver. Edwin Coathugoa, of the Detective Department, Scot land-yard, said that on Saturday afternoon about four o'clock, while standing at the foot of the stairs loading to the dress circle of the Princess's Theatre, the audience at that time leaving after the day performance of the panto mime, he observed the prisoner busily, engaged in attempt • ing to pick ladies' pockets by walking on the right-hand side of them, and fumbling the folds of their dresses. On watching more closely he afterwards saw the prisoner with draw his hand from a lady's pocket, and put something into his own pocket, and then leave the theatre. On following the prisoner into Oxford-street, and asking, him what he had in his pockets, he replied, " Nothing ;" but on taking him into custody, and while taking him back to the theatre, he threw away the purse produced, containing half a sove reign and some silver. He afterwards said the purse and contents were his own. _ _ A gentleman from the Princess's Theatfe said that on Saturday afternoon a lady complained of losing her purse and contents, and as the amount of money nearly tallied, he thought if a remand were granted the lady perhaps would come forward. The prisoner was remanded for a week. DARING HIGHWAY ROBBERY WITII VIOLENCH.— Thomas Amos, of 9 Hampshire Hog-yard, St. Giles, was charged before Mr. Tyr Whitt with stealing with violence from the person of Mr. W. Foster, watchmaker, 3 Little Chesterfield-street, Mayfair, a watch of the vans of £7, and 10s. in gold. Prosecutor said that on Saturday evening, about seven o'clock, while walking along Upper Rathbone-plaeo he re ceived a violent blow from behind, which kr ocked him down, and while on the ground the prisoner took from his pocket £2 10s. in gold, and his watch of the value of £7 On getting up he pursued the prisoner, at the same time cried " Stop thief," and at last in Percy-street, Tottenham • court-road, prisoner was stopped. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the prosecutor said ho was positive the prisoner was the man who robbed him. The watch produced was his property. Joseph Wells, of SO, Grease-street, Rathbone-place, said that having joined in the pursuit d the prisoner on hearing the cry of " Stop thief," he saw tha prisoner while running fast throw the watch down the area of a house in Percy street with a terrible smash. Robert Keys, 44 E, proved stopping the prisoner and taking him into custody. The prosecutor was the worse for drink, and the prisoner was quite sober. A person stepped forward mil said he occasionally employed the prisoner, and he was surprised at the charge when he heard it, never having head anything against the prisoner before. The prisoner was at his house up till half past six on Saturday evening. The prisoner asked that the monty found upon him might be ordered to be given up to him. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he should certainly make no such order, the prosecutor having been r)bbed of some mone) . Sergeant Head 2 E, said the witch was brought to the station by the gentleman residing at 29, Percy-street, in whose area it was picked up. The prisoner was remanded. NEWS OF THE COMING ACADEMY EXHIBITION. —Mr. Leighton will, probably; send not less than four works ; Mr. Stanfield the same number, if not a greater one; Mr. Marks has two, and Mr. Calderon three pictures. Mr. E. M. Ward has been engaged for a oonsiderable part of the past summon and autumn on his waterglass picture for the Hous*f Parliament, but he will,doubtless, not be absent from tannual gathering. CAMBERWELL-HoUSE LUNATIC ASYLUM.—The first of a series of annual entertainments to the inmates of this asylum, where more than 300 patients are kept under the care of Dr. Paul, was given on a recent evening. It was denominated " The Patients' Ball." A large number of ladies and gentlemen were invited to be present on the occasion ; and it was most gratifying to see how heartily many of the patients joined in the dance, and listened with wrapt attention to the strains of vocal and instrumental music with which the proceedings were enlivened. , FIRE LAST NIGHT—Two CHILDREN BURNT TO DEATH.—Last night shortly after 8 o'clock, Con ductor Stephen Tapsell, of the London Fire Brigade, who is stationed at the churchyard of St. Clement Danes, received information that a fire had broken out at No. 17, Hemlock court, near Carey-street, Lincoln's-inn-fields. He imme diately proceeded to the spot with the fire-escape, and was met by Stockman, a fireman, in charge of the parish engine, when it was found that a fire was raging in a third. floor front room, which was occupied by a widow named Coch rane and her two children. A supply of water having been obtained, the room was entered by Tapsell and Stockman, who, by means of buckets, drenched the bed and bedstead, which were smouldering, and ultimately succeeded in ex tinguishing the fire, which had communicated with various articles of furniture, and partially burnt the wainscoat and ceiling. On the room being cleared of the dense smoke which prevailed, the firemen for the first time became aware that two children were in the tenement, the dead bodies of both being found in the bed, locked in each other's arms. The names of the deceased are Richard Cochrane, aged six, and Mary Cochrane, aged four. It appears that the mother of the children was in the house when the accident occurred, but on the room being entered a good fire was found to be burning in the grate. It is somewhat singular Tapsell was called upon to ex tinguishthat a week afiresi n a c t e a Conductor house in Hemlock-court, two doors re moved from the scene of the present accident, and on that occasion a widow who ocoupied the room where the fire broke out was consumed almost to a cinder. THE LUDGATE-HILL VIADUCT.—After all the opposition that has been shown to the Ludgate-hill P in three days without paid canvassers, viaduct—the sigpneetditibony, g0t 1,60 up in the leading merchants and bankers of the City, and all the London clergy, with their bishop at their head— after the London press, without a single exception, has spoken strongly against the project — a project that is now condemned by the Corporation, the Metropolitan Board of Works, and the majority of the mem bers of the Houses of Parliament, the London and Chatham managers have the temerity to ask for the renewal of the bill of it which has caused all the mischief. That bill was disfigured viaducts and cuttings, granted when Parliam ent had no means o f ju d g in g how far y butthe it will metropolis wouldhardlybe renewed in the face of the fullest and moat p a i n ful information upon this point.

This is perhaps the most sen sible way of utilising the Ludgate-hill wreck, and the whole railway interest would be benefited by such a plan. While the threat of this universally condemned Ludgate-hill Via duct hangs over Londo n, no railway proposition, however good, can be calmly considered, and the London and Chat ham Company is certainly not in that strong financial posi tion that it can afford to fly in the face of its fellows and the Puhlic.—City Press. .SICILY.--It appears that travelling in Sicily at present is not unattended; with dung from brigands. A letter received recently in Malta mentions that an English gentleman, trave lli n g in the mail coach, and with a n escort, was fired on by brigands, on the road between Catania and Caltanisetta. One of the armed escort was severely wounded. The s a m e gen tleman was attacked, in October last, near Licata, robbed of everything he had about him, and much maltreated. The heavy rains have done much damage to the roads, and destroyed many bridges, rendering commu nication between the different towns and villages very diffi cult. From this cause no sulphur has arrived at Licata from the interior, for nearly two months. BOOKS RECEIVED. - - - Ella Norman. By Elizabeth A. Murray. 3 vols. Hurst and Blackett. Anne Cave.

A letter from Toulon gives some curious details relative to a scientific voyage about to be undertaken by the Duke de Luynes. Lieutenant Vignes, of the Imperial navy, has been appointed to the command of a steam gunboat belonging to the duke, which is to sail towards the end of the month on this voyage of discovery. After having visited the most inte resting places in the Mediterranean, and particularly the coast of Syria, the boat is to be carried on the backs of mules across the mountains of Judea to be launched on the Dead Sea, of which the waters are to be analysed, as chymists are not agreed as to their quality. The gunboat is to be again carried to the Mediterranean, whence it will proceed to the Black Sea, ascend the Don, cross the Steppes of Dolgo in a waggon to reach the Wolga, which it will descend to the Caspian Sea, that immense conglomeration of water and of oil of petroleum, continually agitated with storms. After having carefully studied these phenomena, as well as the various inhabitants of that little-known region, the travellers will cross on camels the deserts of Asia Minor to the town of Mossoul, where they will explore the course of the Tiger and the Eu phrates, and examine the ruins of the great cities which flourished on their banks. After having accomplished that prodigious journey across seas, rivers, mountains, and deserts, the gunboat will return to Frauce by the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea. All the difficulties attending such a dangerous journey' have been well considered and carefully anticipated. Even the construction of the boat is a chef d'ccuvre of naval architecture and of comfort. All the pieces into which the boat is divided when taken asunder are accurately numbered so that it may easily be put together in 24 hours. It will be for the first time that a steamboat shall have been carried across the precipices of Dagliestan and the scorching sands of Mesopotamia. A picked crew have been placed under the command of Lieutenant Vignes by the French Government for the naviga tion and transport of ; the gunboat. The Duke de Luynes is to be accompanied by several friends, as well as by savans and artists of the greatest merit, who have solicited the honour to share with him he dangers of this hazardous enterprise. MADELINE SMITH IN QUEENSLAND.—A Queens land journal states that the notorious Madeline Smith, tried at Edinburgh some years since for poisoning her lover, was a passenger by the ship Sunda, which lately arrived at Brisbane. SHIELDS, Saturday Wight.—Another large fleet of laden collier vessels left the Tyne yesterday after noon, more have s.dled to-day, and the port is now clear of laden shipping. The wind has been shifting about since Thursday, and last night it blew strong again ; but, upon the whole, vessels at sea yesterday had the wind a little more favourable for making a passage to Yarmouth Roads than was thought here. The wind has been from the W.N.W. to-day, and fresh, so that it is thought the large fleet of laden vessels will have had a good run. THE CAPE MAIL, CONDEMNATION OF BISHOP COLENSO. RUMOURED MURDER OF DR. LIVINGSTONE. The mail steamship Cambrian arrived at Ply mouth yesterday with the above mails and 28 pas sengers. She left the Cape on the 21st ult. ; St. Helena on the 29th ; and Ascension on the 2d inst. The weather continued fine at the Cape, and har vest prospects were good. Provisions were abundant and cheap, and money plentiful, The vineyards promised well, and the orchards were loaded with fruit. The supply of wool was considerably greater than in former years, in both the western and eastern districts, Freights were rising. Bishop Coienso's tries: was concluded on the 16th December. The presenting clergy accused Bishop Colenso of heresy on nine csunts. The suffragan bishops found him guil'y on all the nine. The Metropolitan agreed in that opinion, and sentenced Bishop Colenso to be deprived of his see and all his rights of office therein. The defendant not being present to hear the judgment pronounced against him, the Metropolitan gave him until the 4th of March next to file i❑ London a full, unconditional, and absolute retractation in writing of all the here tical extracts referred to in the counts or otherwise ; to the 16th April next, to file a like retractation in Cape Town. Oa Bishop Colenso so complying the sentence becomes null and void. Dr. Black pro tested against the proceedings, the validity of the judgment, and gave notice of appeal. The inquiry into the death, at Angra Pequina, of James Gray, mate of the barque Saxon. took place at Cape Town on Dec. 2. Messrs. Rowley and Miller had returned from the Zambesi. Dr. Livingstone had received the news of his recall, and had admitted his expedition to be a failure. A rumour had reached the colony of his having been murdered near Lake Nyassa. The new lieutenant-governor, Sir Percy Douglas, arrived out in the Golden Fleece on the 2d Dec. The electric telegraph was in operation to Moseel Bay. Disturbances still existed in the Transvaal. Mr. Brand had been elected president of the Free State. _ The schooner Eveline had been wrecked on Danger Point. Four liven were last. Coburg-Gotha and the Sleswig-Holstein Question. In consequence of the motion brought forward by Austria and Prussia in the Federal Diet, the Government of Cuburg•Gotha eddressed the follow ing note on the 4th inst. to the Austrian and Prus sian Ministers at Dresden : The undersigned, sincerely thanking his Excellency for his communication of the Ist inst., relative to the joint mo tion of the Sleswig affair brought forward by Austria and Prussia in the Federal Diet on the 28th ult., has the honour to make following reply : When this Government was called upon by Denmark in 1852 to give its adhesion to the London protocol, it con sidered it to be its duty to have a thorough understanding on the legality of the question. After careful investigation. and consideration the understanding arrived at was that, after the extinction of the male branch of the elder Royal Danish line, the hereditary right of the Augustenburg House to the Duchies of Sleswig and Holstein could not, according to the right of the first born, admit of any well founded doubt. There being no mention in Denmark's request for adhe sion to the London protocol that the " arrangements" made therein would have to be completed by obtaining the renunciation of the hereditary agitates, as well as the consent of the Sleswig and Holstein representative bodies, the Grand Ducal Government could only see in the execu tion of the resolution contained therein a violation of the well-founded hereditary rights of a German princely house, and of the equally well-founded constitutional rights of a Gorman country, and it therefore refused its adhesion. Under these circumstances, and considering the constitu tional indivisibility of the two duchies, this Government, after the death of his Majesty the King of Denmark, could so much the less hesitate to express its just conviction re specting the succession question, as in every other case of succession in a German Federal country, by the immediate recognition of the legitimate successor, the hereditary Prince of Augustenburg as Duke of Sleswig and Holstein, as the London protocol had never officially been communi cated to the Federal Diet, and therefore, as far as the latter is concerned, has legally no existence, as, moreover, it had been acknowledged by Denmark that the consent, both of the nearer hereditary claimants, as well as of the Reichsrath, to the new order oft uccession was a necessary condition in order to render it valid. Neverthless, this not having been obtained, the falfilment of the condition of the treaty in reference to Sleswig Hol stein must be regarded to those duchies with respect espe cially and generally an event to come. Tbis would in fact have been the case with Denmark, had not the Danish Government been successful in at last obtaining the con sent of the Danish Reichsrath, which had at first been refused. If this Government has so swerved from this, its proper conviction, as to vote at the sitting of the Federal Diet on the 7th ult., in conformance with the wishes of the opposing Governments, it considered itself justified in so doing, because a portion of the decision relative to the suc cession has been expressly withheld ; on the other hand, however, this Government considered itself in duty bound not to oppose the freeing of Holstein from foreign troops, under whatever title this might be effected. But if now, in pursuance of the proposition from the other side, the royal Danish Government shall be requested not to carry out the constitution of the 18th November, so tar as regards Sleswig, but definitively to withdraw the same, the consent to this proposition would be still more directly opposed to the above• mentioned views maintained cn this side ; since a revocation of the said constitution is not to be thought of, its validity at that time being ac knowledged. The constitution, however, was only issued by the present King of Denmark, c dasequently, according to our conviction with regard to Sleswig, by a government not entitled to do so. According to the views of the ducal Government in respect to the question of right, this funda mental law is consequently deprived of every legal basis, and it cannot therefore in auy way consider it as being legally in existence. Under these circumstances, this Government is unable to bring the opinions of the opposite Governments in harmony with its own conviction, and will therefore, to its regret, not be in a position to yarticipate in the motion brought before the diet by the two governments, unless the report to ba submitted by the committee should unexpectedly contain points which would justify a modification of our views. In conclusion, the undersigned avails himself of this op portunity to renew the expression, &G., (Signed) VON SEEBACH. Gotha, Jan. 4, 1864. COOKE AND JOHN KEMBLE--CONTRASTED BY WASHINGTON IRVING.—The finest group I ever saw was at Covent Garden, when Cooke, after long dis grace for his intemperance, reappeared on the boards to play lago to John Kemble's Othello. Mrs. Siddons played Des demona, and Charles Kemble Casafo, beautifully. Kemble [John] had sent for Cooke to rehearse with him at his room, but Cooke would not go. " Let Black Tack"—so he called K e mble—" come to me." So they went on the boards without previous rehearsal. In the scene in which lago instils his suspicion, Cooke grasped Kemble's left hand with his own, and then fixed his right, like a claw on his shoul der. In this position, drawing himself up to him with his short arm, he breathed his poisonous whispers. Kemble coiled and twisted his hand, writhing to get away—his right hand clasping his brow, and darting his eye back on lago. It was wonderful. Speaking to Cooke of the effect on me of this scene, after his arrival in New York [in 1810], "Didn't I play up to Black Jack ?" he exclaimed. " I saw his dark eye sweeping back upon me." I was at John Howard Payne's, near Corlier's Ho ok, the night of Cooke's arri val in New York. I was there by invitation, to meet him. Cooke came in, a little flustered with drink, Was very much exasperated at the detention at thhe e C u stom House of some silver cups, possibly presents, had brought with him ; and would break forth, every now and then, with, " Why did t h e y keep my cups P They knew they would melt !" with significant emphasis. He was harsh and abusive when drunk, but full of courtesy when sober. Mr. Irving dwelt upon the easy jollity' with which he playea Falstaff. ....I asked which he pre ferred—John Kemble or Cooke? Kemble had, perhaps, more the sympathy of his audiene, because he played nobler characters—Cooke the villains; but, in his range, which was limited, he was the greatest actor.'

H.M. St. Ariel, which arrived this week from the Mozambique Coast, announces a letter from the Governor of Senna to the Governor of Quillimane, stating that Dr. Livingstone had been Murdered by the natives on Lake 1 44 .yassa. A sub sequent report prevailed, however, to the effect that he had not been killed, but badly wounded. It is certain that, accompanied with only five Mako lobo, he had gone up from the Murchison Falls to Lake Nyassa ; but, judging from previous misstatements from the same quarter, we are are not disposed to give any credit to the tragic news now communicated. By the same vessel, an interesting letter has been received by Sir Thomas Maclear from the Doctor, written in July last, im mediately after receiving tidings of the recall of his expedition. He wrote then, though somewhat disappointed, in his usual hopeful and courageous tone. " Oar recal," he says, " did not take me any way by surprise, for the Portuguese slave hunters of Tette and Quillimane had so completely aided a drought of one season that the population of this Shire Valley, among whom we had good pro spects of success, is almost entirely destroyed.. They fiaished the people and our work together ; and had I believed that the scourge had been half as sweeping as I now find it to be, I should not have come up. I am, of course, sorry to see the failure of my hopes, though through no fault of my own, and I deeply regret ever giving the slightest credence to the protestations of desire on the part of Portuguese statesmen for the civilisation of Africa. . . The most bitter point of all is to see this line of coast from Cape Delgado to Delagoa Bay left to those who were the first to begin the slave trade, arid are determined to be the last to abandon it. . . . It is, however, very pleasant to see a new Bishop and his band of labourers coming in as we retire." The prospects of the mission, we are happy to say, seem more favourable than they had been for some months before. The Bishop was about to organise it in Morumbula, an elevated and healthy site at the confluence of the Shire ; and though two of the old hands, Mr. Procter and Mr. Rowley, have been com pelled from ill health to retire, the newly arrived missionaries are as energetic and confident of suc cess as ever. Mr. Procter is to enter upon mission work at Natal in Panda's country, and Mr. Rowley returns to England. By this vessel we are also glad to welcome back at the Cape Dr. Meller, of her Majesty's steamer Pioneer, who was reported from the Mozambique to have been dead nearly a year ago. Curious Trial for Murder at the Warwielg Assizes nearly Forty Years ago. (From the Atlas of April 8, 1827.) John Birch was charged with having, on the 28th of March, at Birmingham, murdered Mary Hinton his house • keeper. The prisoner is a man of respectable appearance, very infirm, and upwards of 75 years of age. When called upon to plead, he said, "I am willing to suffer for it." The prisoner here wept aloud. The Judge—Let me advise you to plead Not Guilty. Cir cumstances may come out on your trial that may be favour able to you. Prisoner—l am guilty--I am guilty. I will not tell a falsehood about it. I used her very ill. She was the best woman in the world. The Judge—You will not be guilty of any sin by plead ing not guilty. Prisoner—Not guilty I Why, lam guilty. I have done it, and I wish to suffer for it. lam guilty, and the more is my misfortune. (Bursting into tears.) The prisoner's counsel implored . him to plead not guilty. Prisoner—l say lam guilty. I have used God Almighty very ill, and I want him to forgive me for it. (Bursting into tears, and raising his hand in a supplicating manner.) A jury was about to be empannelled to try whether the prisoner pleaded guilty from insanit y —when he exclaimed— "lf it makes any odds to the Court, it, makes no odds to me ; I'll say I am not guilty; bat I am, you see; but it makes no odds.to me." The trial then proceeded. It appeared from the evidence of his son-in-law, that the old man called on him on the morning of the murder, and showed him the body of his housekeeper, who was dread fully cut with an axe, and she died in a short time, Whilst she was sitting in her chair, the prisoner, according to his I own statement, " thought it was a good opportunity to kill her," and he fetched the weapon and murdered her. The witnesses all deposed to the prisoner's mind having been un settled for some time past; but they were every minute in terrupted by the prisoner, who appeared highly incensed at this part of their testimony. and declared that he was never out of his mind, end that he was in his senses at the time of the murder, The jury found that the prisoner was insane at the time of his trial, and insane at the time he committed the murder. Prisoner—Oh dear, oh dear I Oh my Lord I Do my Lord let me be hanged. How am Ito live in this world? I must do some more mischief to get hanged. Judge—You will be taken care of. You must be kept in confinement to prevent you doing any further mischief, Prisoner—l hope you won't keep me here. Let me be hanged, my lord—l can't live.
